CPG Raw Material Shortage Risk: Build a Global Command Center Immediately, or First Lock In Decision Evidence for High-Risk Materials and Plants?
Current product policyLast updated August 25, 2026
Minerva judgment
Run a time-boxed pilot first, focused on a small set of high-risk materials and plants, to validate data quality, alert reliability, procurement accountability and response thresholds before deciding on expansion — since current data and accountability evidence do not support a one-time global build, and this stoppable path carries lower risk.
Decision owner in the teaching simulationChair of the Global Procurement and Supply Risk Committee at a consumer goods company, in an independent teaching simulation
Human-controlled next action
The committee chair directs the procurement risk and data operations teams to jointly define the high-risk materials and plants list within a set deadline, and to establish a pilot validation plan for data quality, alerting and accountability.
What would reverse the recommendation
If the pilot shows stable data quality, alerts mapped to clear procurement accountability and controllable false-positive rates — or if shortage-spread signals appear simultaneously across multiple high-risk materials — reassess expansion to a global command center.
